In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly integrating into business operations of various industries. More and more small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are adopting AI-powered solutions to drive efficiency, improve decision making and enhance customer experience. However, the application of AI relies on vast amounts of data. SMEs, in their pursuit of innovation, must also stay vigilant about the potential risks associated with the collection, processing and storage of personal data.

As the second event of the “Data Security Training Series for SMEs” organised by the Office of the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data (PCPD) and the Hong Kong Productivity Council (HKPC), this seminar will explore the applications of AI technology in businesses and the potential data security and personal data privacy risks involved. Ms Joanne WONG, Assistant Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data (Compliance, Global Affairs and Research) and Ir Alex CHAN, General Manager of the Digital Transformation Division of the HKPC, will introduce the best practices in procuring, implementing and using AI systems (including generative AI) and share experience in ensuring data and privacy security when using AI.

SMEs of all sectors, organisations which are using or plan to use AI and generative AI, and members of the public with an interest in the topic are welcome to attend.

Enrolment is on a first-come-first-served basis.
